Help I have been infected by Wind32.Adware.Virtumonde. Sounds easy for others to remove but for me it's not. System: Pentium III RAM 128mb 731 MHz OS=Windows XP Servise pack 2 Hard to install other antivirus. Like Kasperksy,Norton,Panda, McAfee etc. Only NOD32 Antivirus is working. No other antivirus installed. You cannot reformat because there is no CD-rom ESET Antivirus cannot clean completely the virus. No backups I cannot use system restore. HELP!
im not 100% sure mate but i think http://www.freewarefiles.com/ have a security tool by norton that you can download and it should remove this and then follow the links and it will update your system after removal. its only a 300kb download and its quick at scanning. i also have spybot s&d on my pc and it found the same virus on my pc and got rid of it. good luck.
Good advice hoppy. Edmund if you get desperate and need to wipe all of your infections out go to www.pctuneuppros.com and ask for Mark. He does excellent work removing viruses and spyware. Good Luck, Rev
Well the problem is Spybot cannot detect it i tried that already. Also norton is very big, my memory isnt enough to handle that big antivirus. And also i cannot go to www.pctuneuppros.com
I didn't think that Norton's security tool was that big. If you have access to another computer dl http://www.avast.com/ antivirus home addition and it's free. It will ask you if you want to do a system scan on your next re-start and click yes. Option 2 is re-boot in the safe mode with the networking option and go to http://www.pctuneuppros.com/ Good luck Pal, Rev
yeh good call rev i forgot you can do a boot scan with avast. i think at freeware you can download the avast tool aswell which will scan your pc. the other option edmund would be to download the avira tool for scanning. it has the best detection rate of most av programs but revs right about the size of the norton tool, its only a 300kb download and shouldnt use much space. remember its the norton tool not the full program.
Hi edmund 085. No, I don't necessarily think that the vundo/virtumonde removal tool from symantec will do the trick. I think that you should try Vundofix and Virtumundebegone. Google those, and then download them. However, you mentioned that you have Nod32. I will require you to boot in safe mode, then scan with Nod32. Remove all infections of virtumunde that NOD32 finds. If all that doesn't work, try downloading A-squared Free, and then scanning with it in safe mode. Also, please post a hijackthis log here. Best Regards
There you have it edmund, a good variety of warfair to fix your computer. Now it's up to you to choose which fix will work for you. Good Luck, Rev
Sufferring Sackatash!!! All of them wont work. My computer runs like hell with heaven mix with pork covered in chocolate. The computer lags. TRIVIA!!! My scan completed almost 7 hours. I'mmm doooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmed to existence. God!!!! Who created that f*******g virus. If I only or If i knew who created that virus I will kill him make his life terrible. Make him suffer for all eternity. I will chop him grind him, mash him, kill, choke, strangle, assassinate, despatch, destroy, murder, slaughter, slay, massacre, annihilate, demolish his life, desolate, dismantle, ruin, waste, extinguish, eradicate, demolition, havoc and whatever evil things that I can think of. and also none of them work. even thou it detected it and destroy it. It just comes back. Oh! isnt it wonderful to kill it's creator.
check in your msconfig/startup to see what is supposed to be there & what is not as had that situation with a customer.
Ok I have found now it's source but I cannot delete it. So I have reformatted my computer. I bring my PC to a computer shop. Now it has no problem, BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have all of the virtumonde files. Haha!! I will post this files in a new thread maybe this will help. Thank for the advise guys. (^ ^)
